Suggestions on how to sync Nextcloud data to external S3 storage

Thanks to @mrmarkuz testing the connection, it seems from the command line a Restic backup can be made to my providers S3 storage. Seems there may be an issue in the GUI that doesn’t allow nethserver to connect to my S3. Hopefully this issue can be resolved.

Now that I’ve taken a look at Nethserver backup and tested it I can see what it does. I have a couple of questions/comments to make:

Nethserver backup is perfect for backing up important data from Nethserver to my S3 as encrypted files. What I was hoping to see though was to be able to see my folders and files by version on my S3 and restore which files I want. For example, an employee deletes a file by mistake from their nethserver file share. I would like to view the files backed up and restore the one file. In its current state it appears nethserver backup and restore is a full restore of everything. Is what I’m looking to do currently possible or could this be a feature request? It appears that almost everything is already in place on Nethserver backup. We just need to have the selective restore with a backup browser system added to give us full remote backup with versioning with file restore ability.

Thank you.
